In accordance with section 351.213(b) of the regulations, an
interested party as defined by section 771(9) of the Act may request in
writing that the Secretary conduct an administrative review. For both
antidumping and countervailing duty reviews, the interested party must
specify the individual producers or exporters covered by an antidumping
finding or an antidumping or countervailing duty order or suspension
agreement for which it is requesting a review, and the requesting party
must state why it desires the Secretary to review those particular
producers or exporters.\2\ If the interested party intends for the
Secretary to review sales of merchandise by an exporter (or a producer
if that producer also exports merchandise from other suppliers) which
were produced in more than one country of origin and each country of
origin is subject to a separate order, then the interested party must
state specifically, on an order-by-order basis, which exporter(s) the
request is intended to cover.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ If the review request involves a non-market economy and the
parties subject to the review request do not qualify for separate
rates, all other exporters of subject merchandise from the non-
market economy country who do not have a separate rate will be
covered by the review as part of the single entity of which the
named firms are a part.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As explained in Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings:
Assessment of Antidumping Duties, 68 FR 23954 (May 6, 2003), the
Department has clarified its practice with respect to the collection of
final antidumping duties on imports of merchandise where intermediate
firms are involved. The public should be aware of this clarification in
determining whether to request an administrative review of merchandise
subject to antidumping findings and orders. See also the Import
Administration web site at http://ia.ita.doc.gov.
Six copies of the request should be submitted to the Assistant
Secretary for Import Administration, International Trade
Administration, Room 1870, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street &
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, D.C. 20230. The Department also
asks parties to serve a copy of their requests to the Office of
Antidumping/Countervailing Operations, Attention: Sheila Forbes, in
room 3065 of the main Commerce Building. Further, in accordance with
section 351.303(f)(l)(i) of the regulations, a copy of each request
must be served on every party on the Department's service list.
The Department will publish in the Federal Register a notice of
``Initiation of Administrative Review of Antidumping or Countervailing
Duty Order, Finding, or Suspended Investigation'' for requests received
by the last day of March 2006. If the Department does not receive, by
the last day of March 2006, a request for review of entries covered by
an order, finding, or suspended investigation listed in this notice and
for the period identified above, the Department will instruct the U.S.
Customs and Border Protection to assess antidumping or countervailing
duties on those entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit of (or bond
for) estimated antidumping or countervailing duties required on those
entries at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for
consumption and to continue to collect the cash deposit previously
ordered.
This notice is not required by statute but is published as a
service to the international trading community.
Dated: February 23, 2006.
Thomas F. Futtner,
Acting Office Director, AD/CVD Operations, Office 4, for Import
Administration.
